Subject: [PATCH][next] cifs: Replace zero-length arrays with flexible-array
 members
Message-ID: <Y7zBtCZ/eRJCpjBf@work>
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii
Content-Disposition: inline
Precedence: bulk

Zero-length arrays are deprecated[1] and we are moving towards
adopting C99 flexible-array members instead. So, replace zero-length
arrays in a couple of structures with flex-array members.

This helps with the ongoing efforts to tighten the FORTIFY_SOURCE
routines on memcpy() and help us make progress towards globally
enabling -fstrict-flex-arrays=3 [2].
